I’m also on brave and had to wade through this same issue. Happy to help! Enjoy the mic and awesome setup!
First off, beautiful hardware! Secondly, based on what you’ve said you’ve already tried, you’ve probably run through most of what I’d recommend to troubleshoot this. I don’t experience this issue with my Volt 176 but doing some searching I found a thread that it could be Chrome related? Worth a shot
On Chrome URL
type "chrome://flags/"
Goto > "Allow WebRTC to adjust the input volume" = DISABLE (set to disable)
What mic do you have? Are you going through any intermediate hardware? Ie a Volt device to input XLR mic? Have you disabled “allow applications to take exclusive control of this device”? You will need to go through the “Additional sound settings” option of the windows 11 control panel to access the OG sound settings UI. that will have what you need.
Full stack is the way to go - at least to a degree such that you can understand and appreciate e2e designs, patterns, anti patterns, efficiencies, etc.
I’d say a good way to start would be to find a project you’re interested on GitHub and check it out, play with it, and if you find something you want to change, add, or remove, just jump right in and submit a PR!
I’ll share one of my projects I put together for a buddy’s makerspace startup that we’ve open sourced such that it can benefit from community involvement as they grow. It’s a fun little playground that’ll give you experience with a modernized Python full-stack application, designed to run on a raspberry pi, and containerized with Docker. Enjoy!
What kind of developer? I’m on the market for a React + Vite + TailwindCSS v4 frontend dev if that’s got any overlap with your interests/experience
Oh absolutely. I’ve got two Nvidia Jetsons and honestly they’re perfect for running dedicated workloads or automating training runs. I’d love for MB manufacturers to start tossing a soldered NPU/TPU on the board and call it a day
Okay perfect, just wanted to check.
Next I’d say check your venv to verify the pandoc binary is indeed there:
find $VIRTUAL_ENV -name pandoc
If it’s not there, you should be able to install it by entering a python shell from your venv and do:
import pypandoc
pypandoc.download_pandoc()
Hopefully that’s able to resolve it for ya. Venv should be at the front of your path so it should prefer bins from there.
Did you activate your virtual python env with ‘source .venv/bin/activate’? You must do that in each new shell unless you add some config to your shell profile config to have it detect the presence of a python venv.
Yeah, I desire buying hardware without AI, or any other manufacturer bloatware.
A few more from the evening.
